That was a surprise. Seems that the two were battling each other. Wonder what place 224 reps will end up.. with that clean and jerk will stay towards the top of the leader board. T2B workout for sure.

I am sure that someone will knock it out of the park 15.1 but will not have a great Alpha.. and vice versa.. Overall sure Rich will be fine. Castro asked him if he would do it again he said no.

That would be amazing to see Klokov or Ilya sign up, stand around, and smash a huge clean and jerk for $2015.

Or if not them, I see no reason why some top US weightlifters in the upper weight classes can't do the same thing, especially if they work with crossfitters a lot and know about the open.

I hope that does not happen and that CF HQ implemented some sort of protection to prevent it.

It would go against what CF is as somebody would win that is only very very very good at once thing and sucks at another -> not a CF athlete, but a specialist weightlifter, they already have a sport to compete in.

do you think anyone from the women side will be able to beat Camille on this workout? it seems like this workout was tailor made for her.

They will probably make it the winner of the day gets the money, as in whoever is in 1st place after this dual workout

Someone like Klokov could sit back, get 3 or 4 rounds on 15.1 to get a score in that slot, then get a 400lb C+J on 15.1a and come close.

I've been looking around, and couldn't find any info on the custom leader board. Is it not working for 2015? I can't seem to get it to work correctly.

Btw someone has posted a #390 Jerk. #235 for the women atm which is still about #20+ off Camille's best.

wfs actually

Actually skimmed through barbell shrugged video tips, it was funny toward the end but a lot of it is no duh stuff. I still the Outlaw guide is better. BBS had some kinda mini WOD BS as a warmup to 15.1. F that, just warm up the movements after a general warmup. It was like Airdyne repeats and I heard "Rounds" and skipped ahead.
